POPULAR singers Alfie Boe and Michael Ball are performing at the Open Air Theatre in Scarborough later this month.

The show, on Thursday, June 30, will see the pair bring their Together This Summer tour to the Yorkshire coast.

The show will be Alfie’s fourth at the venue, following headline performances at the town’s Armed Forces Day concert in 2015 and 2018, as well as a memorable night with Michael Ball in 2017.

Speaking ahead of his return to Scarborough, Alfie said: “I have had a wonderful time there over the years – it’s a great venue and a wonderful place to perform.

“Scarborough OAT is one of my favourite venues.

"Any venue in the open air, in nature, where you’re around trees and the sunset, it’s delightful.

“When the music is playing and the sun starts to set, it becomes a very romantic setting I think.”

Alfie and Michael joined forces back in 2016, releasing their duets debut Together to huge acclaim.

It became the UK’s best-selling album that year, beating the likes of Little Mix and The Rolling Stones to the Christmas number one spot.

Together Again followed suit reaching number one in 2017, and Back Together peaked at number two in the official albums chart.

In 2020, they released Together At Christmas, and followed that up with a smash-hit UK arena tour in 2021.

As a duo, they have now sold more than 1.3 million albums in the UK, received two Classic Brit Awards, sold out several headline arena tours and presented three ITV Specials.

Alfie said: “All we want to do is get everyone on their feet, singing and dancing,”

“We all need fun and entertainment in our lives after going through the pandemic.

“It’s time we started to enjoy life again – and this summer is the perfect time to bring people together through music.
